Chapter 8 She's Still Here 02
The university courses were not very tight, and although there were occasional club activities on weekends, everyone was relatively free because it was a rest day, so He Qingkong scheduled a visit to the crime scene on Sunday.
"Shiqing, are you ready?" Lin Mobai stood at the door, looking at Zhou Shiqing who was putting on makeup and dressing up with his beautiful eyes, and couldn't help but remind her, "Everyone is waiting downstairs."
"It's almost time, don't rush me." Zhou Shiqing put on her blush and stood up and walked over.
Although this time they went to the crime scene to help Lin Mobai recall the situation at that time, He Qingkong took Lin Mobai's condition into consideration and changed the theme of this trip to "outdoor dinner."
When Lin Mobai pulled Zhou Shiqing downstairs, Lu Yanqi, who was standing at the door, was already impatient. He frowned and was about to scold them both when he suddenly got stuck. He stared at Zhou Shiqing in a daze and didn't say anything. As a result, He Qingkong spoke to him first.
"Xiaobai, are you all ready?" He Qingkong stepped forward and pulled Lin Mobai over, being very intimate.
"Well, I've bought everything you asked me to buy." Lin Mobai shrank his neck somewhat uncomfortably, a blush on his face.
When He Qingkong saw Lin Mobai blushing, he also blushed. He scratched the back of his head and said, "As long as you are ready, then... let's go!" After saying that, He Qingkong pulled Lin Mobai and left as if they were running away.
Zhou Shiqing looked at the two people leaving, an envious smile appearing on the corner of her mouth.
"Did you put on makeup today?" Lu Yanqi, who had finally come to his senses, walked to Zhou Shiqing and asked in a low voice while looking around.
Zhou Shiqing glanced at the person who came over, raised her eyes slightly, and said calmly: "Anyone with eyes can see that I'm wearing makeup."
Lu Yanqi frowned and said nothing. He sensed full of malice and displeasure from Zhou Shiqing's words. Seeing that Lu Yanqi didn't say anything, Zhou Shiqing didn't continue to make things difficult for him. Instead, he quickened his pace to catch up with Lin Mobai and Lu Yanqi in front.
In this group of five people, the last one walking was Shi Xujun. She was like a lonely shadow, walking silently at the end. No one talked to her and no one noticed her.
The March sunshine was obviously not dazzling, but Shi Xujun felt a pain in her eyes. Her gaze was like a spider web, stuck behind Lin Mobai.
It would be nice if there was no Lin Mobai in this world...
Shi Xujun lowered her head, this thought constantly churning in her mind. At this moment, she felt her clenched fist being wrapped by someone, and a warm breath wrapped around her fingers.
Who was holding her hand? Shi Xujun looked up suddenly, and what caught her eyes was Lin Mobai's slightly cautious expression. A feeling of disappointment, familiarity, and strangeness instantly filled her chest.
"Xujun, let's go together." Lin Mobai said this with some stammering, and his tightly clasped hands were faintly flushed due to nervousness.
Shi Xujun nodded subconsciously and was led by Lin Mobai to the other three people. At that moment, Shi Xujun thought she had returned to her childhood, as if the person standing next to her was Ding Zhiyou instead of Zhou Shiqing.
However, this trance only lasted for a few seconds, and all illusions were shattered with He Qingkong's voice : "Xiaobai, let me hold the things. Are you tired? Do you want some water?"
"It's okay, I'm not tired." Lin Mobai shook her head, but He Qingkong acted as if she didn't see it. She reached out to take the bag from Lin Mobai's hand and rubbed her head.
"Please, both of you stop it, we are all still here!" It was Lu Yanqi who interrupted. He rolled his eyes at He Qingkong helplessly and muttered softly, "Haven't you heard that showing off your affection will lead to a quick breakup?"
"Even if it's divided quickly, it's none of your business, you bad guy who ruins the atmosphere. " Among the five people, only Zhou Shiqing dared to challenge Lu Yanqi in this way.
"You...a good man doesn't fight with a woman."
"I'm glad that women don't fight with men!" Zhou Shiqing's words made Lin Mobai and He Qingkong, who were listening nearby, laugh out loud. Even though Lu Yanqi knew that the two people's laughter was without malice, he couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.
In order to ease Lu Yanqi's embarrassment, Shi Xujun quickly helped to change the subject and said, "By the way, didn't we say we were here to help Lin Mobai recall what happened? Why did we suddenly change it to a dinner party outdoors?"
"Because I don't want to go through all this in vain with sadness." He Qingkong lowered his voice unconsciously when he spoke.
Lin Mobai blushed when explaining this, but said softly: "I still feel that this is not good. After all, I am sorry to Zhiyou. I came here with a relaxed mood... Zhiyou will definitely be sad if he knows."
"I know you feel sorry for Zhiyou, but Zhiyou also regards you as your most important friend. She will feel uncomfortable if you keep being sad like this." He Qingkong's words made Lin Mobai a little shaken. Although she had opposed it when He Qingkong decided to have a picnic, she could not resist He Qingkong's advice at that time and finally agreed to his proposal. But agreeing did not mean that she fully agreed.
"Okay, don't think too much. Now that you're here, don't worry about it anymore!" He Qingkong squeezed Lin Mobai's hand and said in a low voice, "No matter what happens, I will always be by your side."
"Yeah." Lin Mobai took a deep breath and nodded.
Shi Xujun, who had not gotten a word in, felt extremely uncomfortable. It was as if the heart in her chest was first picked up and then smashed to pieces. She was in so much pain that she couldn't utter a word.
Seeing that Shi Xujun didn't say anything, Lu Yanqi thought she was unhappy, and quickly said, "When Qingkong first proposed this proposal, I also voted against it."
"Your ticket is invalid." Zhou Shiqing added.
Shi Xujun looked at Lu Yanqi and shook her head, saying, "I'm not unhappy about this. I just feel a little sad when I think of Zhiyou." She quickly covered up her sadness with lies.
"Mr. Xu, don't be sad... The most important thing for us now is to help Lin Mobai recall what happened so that he can correct that bastard!" Lu Yanqi spoke with a firm tone, as if he was touched by something.
Shi Xujun just nodded, expressing her answer with her actions. No one knew that on this noisy road, her heart was crushed into pieces by someone's smile and frown .
